New York Van Attack Driver Ticketed 4 Times in Nebraska

On Tuesday truck driver Sayfullo H. Saipov killed eight pedestrians and injured at least a dozen people, including two children as he drove his truck down a bike path. As he attempted to flee on foot, officers on the scene shot the suspect in the stomach. He is expected to recover from his injuries. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said the attack appeared to be a "lone wolf" incident with no apparent link to a wider terrorist plot.
